Take 12 August 2012 #take12

I’m sharing my finished layouts this month yay! I love this kit from Paislee Press in the Digi Game this month.

Winter in Perth is delightful. Despite Emily's cold we had a lovely day with the normal washing, cleaning, cooking interspersed with:
Calculating
Role playing
Jumping
Jigsaw puzzling
Reaching
Watching
Swinging
Photographing
A lovely winters day.13 August 2012

So I was a bit late on Ella's Take 12. On the 12th of each month I stop and take (hopefully 12) photos of our daily life. I ended up taking these photos on the 13th, but who’s counting?

I used a 8.5x11 template this month and resized it. Wondering how? Here’s a demo.

Take 12 June 2012 #take12

It's time again for Ella's Take 12. On the 12th of each month I stop and take (hopefully 12) photos of our daily life. There’s also monthly theme prompts in the Take Twelve pack, but I’m keeping it simple with a toddler and new baby!

Take 12 May 2012 #take12

I'm excited to share my first take 12 for the year with our new little one. As usual I'm not doing a theme, just documenting our every day life. We have had a third birthday and a 40th anniversary to celebrate today, so our usual Saturday of odd jobs and swimming lessons gave way to parties and a late afternoon sleep for all four of us.
